Arsenal news roundup: Gunners to launch PSG swap deal, Arsenal close in on £12m midfielder signing, and more

Arsenal are reportedly closing in on the £12m signing of want-away Real Madrid midfielder Sami Khedira, according to the Metro.

The German international has turned down the offer of a new contract at the Bernabeu, and the club are now keen to sell him before the end of the summer to avoid losing him on a free transfer next year.

The 27-year-old has also been linked with Chelsea for much of the transfer window, though the Gunners seem to be winning the chase for his signature.
